Overview
- The United States beat Chile 4-2 in St. Louis on Wednesday when Mathis Albert, who was substituted on in the 71st minute, scored in the 90+3 minute to make the final score.
- Referee Jorge Abraham Camacho Peregrina confirmed Albert's goal after using goal-line technology to verify the ball had crossed the line.
- Reports put Albert's age at 17 years, four months and eight or nine days when he scored, which beats the previous youngest-scorer mark held by Christian Pulisic from 2016.
- Albert had made his US debut days earlier against Peru and provided an assist, and coach Mauricio Pochettino has praised his readiness and temperament in the national setup.
- Albert remains a Dortmund prospect with limited first-team minutes, and his rapid run of international minutes and milestones could increase his opportunities for regular club playing time or a loan to gain experience.
